Travelling to Tofino

I didn't really want to leave the hostel this morning since I was having such a great time with everyone. Nevertheless, I took the bus to Tofino around noon. The bus ride was rather relaxed. There was a lot of rain and also some fog today, so I didn't see too much of the landscape. Still, it was nice to look out of the window of the bus. Some time in the afternoon, the bus came to an unexpected halt as there was a long line of cars standing on the street. It took a while until we were moving again. Apparently the cause was a car that had driven off the street into the guardrail.
The last third of the bus ride was beautiful, we drove through a remote area with mountains partly covered by clouds, lakes and rivers.
I finally arrived in the hostel around 7:30 PM. My room was really nice with an amazing view of the ocean. 
Around 9 PM - just when the sun was about to set - I walked to a nearby beach to take some pictures of the sunset. It was a really amazing and calming scenery and I enjoyed watching some dogs play in the water. 
On the walk back, I was actually worried that I would get totally lost, since I ended up on a path which was longer than I had expected. In addition to that, I was the only one walking there. On the one hand side, this was a bit scary as it was getting dark. On the other hand, I really enjoyed the silence all around me.
